Did a search and didn't come up with anything, so here it goes. A while back i got to wondering why i was stuck with the 4 lug look. Thought i would take a chance and see about getting a Ducati eccentric hub hoping it would just slide right in. Well, it did alright.....right out the other side. :unsure:
So with this revelation i thought no problem, i'll just make a spacer. Yeah right, wish it was that easy. Had a major set back when i realized what a machine shop would charge to make such a part. Well, time has finally come to where i got a spacer made. The one in the pics is out of Ti. simply because it was the most convenient metal at the time of machining. Al. would probably be a better choice cause its going to be 20% lighter. Either way i can now fit my Ducati hub in the Honda swinger. Now i just have to mount up the rest of the hardware to make sure there are no issues.
